Introducing the ping2020i: A Cutting-edge ADS-B Transceiver
The ping2020i, developed by uAvionix, is a state-of-the-art, compact dual-band ADS-B transceiver designed to substantially improve safety and situational awareness for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). This innovative device operates on both 1090MHz and 978MHz frequencies, enabling it to detect nearby ADS-B equipped aircraft in real-time, wiht an impressive range of up to 100 miles.
Equipped with a WAAS-enabled GPS and a highly accurate barometric sensor, the ping2020i provides essential geolocation and altitude information, which is vital for safe navigation within the National Airspace System (NAS). Weighing only 26 grams, its low size, weight, and power (SWaP) profile make it an excellent choice for UAVs with stringent payload limitations.
Designed to withstand challenging environmental conditions,the ping2020i features advanced fault-detection mechanisms that ensure mission reliability,even in busy airspace.Its battery-supported GPS allows for speedy signal acquisition, while the high-dynamic range receiver guarantees consistent signal quality during operations in high-density environments.
This device meets the FAA MOPS standards DO-282B Class A1S and DO-260B Class A0, and it is compatible with the GDL 90 protocol, facilitating smooth integration with ground control systems. Rigorous HALT (Highly Accelerated Life Test) and HASS (Highly Accelerated Stress Screen) testing further validate its suitability for demanding defense and commercial UAV applications.
